More of us than ever before now work from home full-time or for a few days per week. Either way, here are some tips to help ensure you're setting yourself up for success.
- Keep a dedicated office space - When you’re in this space, you are in “work mode”
- Maintain regular working hours - Routine and rhythm helps with focus
- Create a daily working pattern and stick to it - This helps to minimise the distractions of being at home
- Regular breaks - Schedule time away from your desk, ideally leave your house and get some fresh air.
- Interaction - Pro-actively connect with colleagues to minimise isolation and loneliness
- Equipment - If your company supports a work from home policy, make sure you request all the things you need to be as productive as possible
